One of the most common neurological disorders is epilepsy, which disturbs the nerve cell activity in the brain, causing seizures. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals are used to detect epilepsy and are considered standard techniques to diagnose epilepsy conditions. EEG monitors and records the brain activity of epilepsy patients, and these recordings are used in the diagnosis of epilepsy. However, extracting the information from the EEG recordings manually for detecting epileptic seizures is a difficult cumbersome, error-prone, and labor-intensive task. These negative attributes of the manual process increase the demand for implementing an automated model for the seizure detection process, which can classify seizure and nonseizures from EEG signals to help in the timely identification of epilepsy. Recently, deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) techniques have been used in the automatic detection of epileptic seizures because of their superior classification abilities. ML and DL algorithms can accurately classify different seizure conditions from large-scale EEG data and provide appropriate results for neurologists. This work presents a feature extraction-based convolutional neural network (CNN) to sense and classify different types of epileptic seizures from EEG signals. Different features are analyzed to classify seizures via EEG signals. Simulation analysis was managed to investigate the classification performance of the hybrid CNN-RNN model in terms of different achievement metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, f1 score, and false-positive rate. The results validate the efficacy of the CNN-RNN model for seizure detection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
